You have been subscribed to a public bug: Binary package hint: xmessage
I installed edubuntu 6.06 LTS / alternate (with LVM) I never came to use the edubuntu side, since X did not come up, and I wanted to use kdm instead of gdm, so it became an Kubuntu installation. When time came that 6.10 was available, I upgraded my repositories and dist-upgraded. Again X went black, but after repairing the default desktop is the Edubuntu flavour of Gnome. I still usually log on to KDE or Enlightenment, but time and again I come to use Gnome. Each of those times, all the applets crash on logging in. It turns out that xmessage also crashes. There is a bug report that is generated, I hope I can attach it. Thank you for working on this bug! Even though I do not usually have Gnome on the desktop, I surely hope my report can help it become an ever better environment! ** Affects: gnome-panel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- xmessage crashes on login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/75932 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
